STRANGE BUT TRUE: OFFICIAL SARAH PALIN BLOGGING GROUP DECLARES WAR ON ZINDRA DOG

Albert the Zindra Dog - Expelled by Sarah Palin Blogging Group

You can read about it here.  Albert the Zindra-Based German Shepherd has been expelled by the official Sarah Palin Blogging Group for leaving "inappropriate comments" on other blogs.



EDDI HASKELL'S SECOND LIFE AND BLUE MARS: BLOGGERS FOR SARAH PALIN DECLARE WAR ON ALBERT THE GERMAN SHEPHERD!

From Eddi Haskell's Second Life: Route 69 in Zindra -- One of the Nicest Complexes in Second Life.

Our next door neighbors in the adult-content Continent of Zindra are an aptly named retail complex and  sex hangout  called "Route 69" owned by some very friendly ladies who are nice neighbors of ours, Ale Etzel and Inigo Catteneo.

I was away for a few days- and they have build an amazing complex by expanding south of my gallery, Eddi Haskell Photography and The Museum of Sex Furniture. The place had people walking around all day.

I took some photos of the impressive and well designed complex this evening. It is a good location for a clothing store, sex bed store, gallery - and does not have to be geared toward "adult entertainment".   There are regular businesses there. There is also a new Shemale temple, a Jazz Club, Dance Area- it is really nice.

Please contact Ale Etzel or Inigo Catteneo if you want to rent some space at a very competitive price.

Happy Christmas

Happy Christmas, Everyone

I hope you have all had a wonderful day, opening presents, stuffing your faces and laughing with everyone.

Poor Sods like me went to work, I am a chef in RL for those of you who don't know and I swear I didn't do anything to Tickle the bunny involving Red Wine Reduction and sauteed vegetables with a puff pastry crust.

I will be off on a little trip to San Francisco for a few days, but I got lots of fun things planned for the new year.

See you all soon

Happy Birthday to the Zindra Times!

The Zindra Times will be one year old next Wednesday, December 31. Jago Constantine and I originally began publishing this web site at Sex Aficionado, a review of everything sex related in Second Life. Back in June 2009, we relaunched the publication as The Zindra Times to coincide with the next sex continent of Zindra. In November of 2009, Suede Sixpence took over the management of the publication as Editor-In-Chief and Jeannnna Jameson increased her resonsibilities as a staff writer.

How did we do in our first year?

We have published 270 posts during our first year, or about five per week on average- one every working day. 

We have had over 60,000 unique hits in this blog during our first year.  We have grown to over 25,000 hits this quarter, the final number next week should top in at over 27,000 unique hits. Note that if a reader accesses several pages in a 30 minute period it is counted as only one hit. 

We have been seen in over 130 countries around the world in our first year.

Thank you for your readership and support. The staff of the Zindra Times would like to wish all of you best wishes for a prosperous and happy New Years!

Eddi Haskell, founding editor

10 Second Life Predictions for 2010

10 Second Life Predictions for 2010

As this year winds down, I thought this was a really smart article about what would happen with our favorite virtual world in 2010.

The Zindra Times Office Ironchurch/118/240/23

It's a big Chair




http://slurl.com/secondlife/Ironchurch/118/240/23


The Zindra Times has a great new Office in the Ironchurch Sim on Zindra.
On the waterfront close to the central island, it's a lovely location and we are very lucky, our little office has lovely plush leather seating, a cute little Christmas tree, and I got a kick arse huge desk, but honestly not much else.. however, I am getting there.



Feel free to drop by any time.. of course I wont be there.. but drop by anyway.



I will try to be in the office for one hour each day.. from 5pm to 6pm SL time, Day off Sunday. I am online at other times of course, but then I am really really really really busy. :P

Haven't yet organized the dropbox yet, but I will.

Regards Suede..
err no
Editor in chef.. Suedeykins.
smiles.. much better, I got the chair now I want the title.

Sailing the High Seas with Kris Citron

The Sea Nymph





I first met Kris when she organized the very successful 2009 Sex Games, a very interesting and enterprising woman, so when I found out she has a new project on the go, I had to go and nosy and see what it is all about.



Well, well, well, fellow Zindrans, this is some boat.. I will let you read Kris's own words from here and the pictures speak for themselves.

Suede: Big big boat.. how many prims?
Kris Citron: Around 4500
Suede: Wow is that an entire sim length, I think it is.
Kris Citron: Ah No.. the sim has 15000 prims, but it's a lot of prims, it's a lot of ship.

Suede: So did you furnish the ship or did it come furnished?
Kris Citron: Oh, the ship was built by Eva Scintilla, then it was totally renovated from top to bottom by the miraculously gifted Webby Merlin. I designed it as you see it, for the most part, this lounge is the only thing remaining from the original ship
and the Tiki bar downstairs wasn't changed that much. It's called skinnydippers.
Suede: How long did it take to refurbish the ship?
Kris Citron: Approximately 3 weeks, working flat out, me and my two partners, Taelor Anton and talon1953 Belgar



Suede: Ohhh nice.. a pool
Kris Citron: yeah! We had a cool rain forest night in here

Kris Citron: So the next room over is my fave. We have a live musician every Friday in here
Suede: Who do you have playing ?
Kris Citron: we've had 6 acts so far I think! All were fantastic.
We had Buckley Moonwall, Obeloinkment Wrigglesworth, PM Bookmite, Winston Ackland and Mandoaa Dragonash.
Suede: Which days do they perform.. approximately what time?
Kris Citron: and Untolerable Bohemian plays upstairs now every Sunday and the Friday shows in this room are usually at 6 and Bo plays Sundays at 2pm.


Kris Citron: We have trivia on Wednesdays here as well, that's a fun night ,Nymala Mikadze, do you know her? She does trivia for us.
Suede: Yeah I like trivia too.. me too geeky , oops did I say that out loud.

Kris Citron : We have a weekly event where a Portuguese DJ spins for 2 hours then a Portuguese bossa nova act goes on, it's become popular with the Portuguese, so we renovated this deck to contain the event in one space.
Kris Citron: We can host any number of events here, like weddings, we had a very successful fashion show last week with Azul and Musashi-Do

Suede : Oh so you have a shopping area as well.
Kris Citron: Yes, these are our awesome shops, We have some of the best brands in SL, Styles of Edo, Azul, JCNY too and Musashi-do
Kris Citron: have you seen the Musashi-do bikini collection and they come with tan lines too!
Suede: yeah they are nice
Kris Citron: the tan lines are really cool, you wear them under the bikini, so if you need to take it off for any reason... giggles
Suede: laughs.. I am sure I don't know what you mean
Kris Citron: giggles

Suede: Sooooo, this is something very different for you Kris a new venture, if you were to answer your new life in one sentence what would it be?
Kris Citron :Kris Citron was a naughty girl then she made a boat. Giggles



Think that comment sums up our girl Kris, So I suggest you go check out her live music and also her trivia nights, sounds like great night down on the Seven Seas.


The Sea Nymph has 5 decks all of them well appointed and has a really nice event room, which would be lovely for a wedding, I could have taken a ton of photos but then the post would be 5 miles long, better you go and look for yourself the address is below or alternatively just click open Kris Citron's profile and the link is in there.

New Office for The Zindra Times

Hello, fellow Zindrans

I was very lucky to get a nice piece of land in the Ironchurch Sim, nice hillside, nice death plunge if your not careful, anyway I digress. I will be putting up a small office for ZT, with a notecard drop point and anything else I can think off that a busy newspaper office needs.


On a side note, you if you want to rent in Zindra now is a great time, just between you and me, I got 1100 prims for 1100 Lindens, pretty good deal hey, and you know what they say folks, where there is one great deal there is always more. If your interested contact me inworld. I will give you the name of my Landlord.


So I am wondering do I make a deck on the side of the hill, like the one below, so anyone I don't like can be pushed to their pixel demise or should I do skybox.. cant decide.

And So This Is XXXmas!

Tis' the season to make Christmas SL Adult Films! Now we know why Santa yells out "Ho" so much!

There's a lot of holiday flavored adult pics out there right now.

Maybe my favorite is Katherine Avon's SANTA'S CHRISTMAS DREAM. The footage is so interesting the way it is shot. And the chimney isn't the only thing hung this year! No wonder they all are lining up to sit in on the big man's lap!

Another movie is BAD BAD SANTA by Pasquale Foden.

Lastly there's another Holiday movie that I am fond of. It's a little Video Holiday Card I made for you to get you in the mood...A very sexxy XXXmas mood.

What is Mature?

I cut and pasted this definition of the rating for Second Life, just in case anyone was confused ( laughs) we are all confused and I know this is going help us all work out what exactly should be on Zindra.

What are "Adult" Regions, groups, events, and classifieds? The Adult designation applies to Second Life® Regions that host conduct or display content that is sexually explicit or intensely violent, or depicts illicit drug use. Any Region must be designated Adult and therefore require account verification, if it advertises or publicly promotes the following: Representations of intensely violent acts, whether or not photo-realistic (for example, depicting death, torture, dismemberment or other severe bodily harm) Photo-realistic nudity; photo-realistic means that an image either is or cannot be distinguished from a photograph Expressly sexually themed content, spaces or activities (whether or not photo-realistic); we will broadly define what is "sexually themed" to include any sexually oriented activities and conduct Groups, event listings and classified ads that reference these themes or content must also be designated Adult. Linden Lab will enforce these rules. However, we can't monitor all ephemeral content and conduct within Second Life. We will therefore rely on several factors in implementing these Adult designation requirements: First and foremost, Regions, groups, and event or classified ad listings that employ search tags plainly suggestive of adult behavior or content will require the respective Adult designation, and not be viewable to Residents who are not account verified. Second, we will conduct proactive monitoring and rely on abuse reports that identify adult content or conduct that is promoted or advertised publicly. Where adult content or conduct on a Region is publicly advertised or promoted, that Region must be designated as Adult (or such content must be removed). We will re-designate such Regions if adult content is not removed. We may take into account whether apparent or reported adult content or conduct on a particular Region serves only an extremely limited or passive function, or an important educational or cultural function, and therefore would be appropriate for all Second Life audiences. As with all reported activity in violation of our policies, we will actively review all reports of adult conduct and provide Residents with a channel for rebuttal. In the FAQs below, we offer examples as to what types of Regions are and are not considered adult, based on, for example, distinctions between "public" and "private" content, as well as distinctions between content that is "expressly sexually themed" and content that is not. Linden Lab has created a special-use "Adult Continent" -- a "mainland" alternative where adult content and activities can be located and found by Residents. Landowners wishing to host adult activities or make available adult content can either Locate on this Adult Continent Locate on a Region that has been designated by its owner as Adult Region owners are responsible for designating a Region's maturity level. Occupants of Regions will be expected to locate in a Region suitable to each occupant's content and conduct. What are "Mature" Regions, groups, events, and classifieds? Second Life's Mature Designation is intended to accommodate most of the non-adult activities that are common in Second Life. For instance, social and dance clubs (unless those clubs promote sexual conduct or use adult search tags), bars, stores and malls, galleries, music venues, beaches, parks (and other spaces for socializing, creating, and learning) all support a Mature designation so long as they don't host publicly promoted adult activities or content. Thus, Residents in these spaces should expect to see a variety of themes and content. For instance, stores that sell a range of content that includes some "sexy" clothing or objects can generally reside in Mature rather than Adult Regions. Dance clubs that feature "burlesque" acts can also generally reside in Mature Regions so long as they don't promote sexual conduct, such as through pose balls (whether in "backrooms" or more visible spaces). However, if any of these businesses uses adult-oriented search tags, it may be categorized as adult and also blocked from appearing in non-adult search. Groups, events and classifieds that relate to this broad range of activities and themes generally should also be designated as Mature. What are "PG" Regions, groups, events, and classifieds? There are some landowners and Residents who desire a Second Life experience distinct from the activity that occurs in Mature and Adult Regions. Region owners who wish to host this sort of Second Life experience can (but need not) designate their Regions as PG. A Region may be designated PG if it does not advertise or make available content or activity that's sexually explicit, violent or depicts nudity. Likewise, sexually-oriented objects such as "sex beds" or poseballs may not be located or sold in PG regions. As we've also often said, PG regions are areas where you'd feel free to say and do things that you'd be comfortable saying and doing in front of your grandmother, or a grade school class. Institutions such as universities, conference organizers, and real world businesses, for instance, may wish to designate their Regions as PG. Likewise their users (and others) may wish to employ Second Life's PG search setting to deliver further targeted search results. If you're unsure whether your region is PG or mature, or feel there's some ambiguity as to whether your content and activities are allowed in PG regions, it's probably best to designate your region as Mature. Please refer to our FAQs for further guidance on the implementation and enforcement of this policy, information on our account verification procedures, and information on how we will transition our Region owners and merchants to this system in an efficient way.

PART II: For Those On The Naughty List...BEST SL ADULT FILMS OF DECEMBER

By JENNNNNA JAMESON

Probably the director making the most movies these days is Roberto Highfield. I like to tease him that he is the "Energizer Bunny" of SL porn. :)

Here is one of his latest, best and most controversial releases. It's called THE CORRUPTION OF SISTER TIFFANY and it stars Rob and one of the biggest stars today, Tiffany Neox:

PART I: For Those On The Naughty List...THE BEST SL ADULT FILMS OF DECEMBER

BY JENNNNNA JAMESON

The last few months have been really active for the SL Adult film community. Besides it getting colder and more of us seeking body warmth to help us keep out the chill, there have been a slew of new, talented directors and tons of fantastic films. (Click here to see hundreds of SL Adult films)



Probably the most prolific is AmyKitten Parx who has created PINK KITTEN PRODUCTIONS. After doing almost 50 films in just a few weeks, Amy believes this, one of her  latest starring Giselle Wellington and the wonderful Jud Adored, is her best film.

One look at the beautiful outdoor location and I totally agree...

Christmas Lingerie

Hello from your friendly lingerie fiend,

During Christmas, there is always a lot of lovely new things,and I found this lovely backdrop and thought of Cathy from Wuthering Heights, running through the moors.. Hummmms Kate Bush.. all I need is my Heathcliffe.. where are you?

I have been to two shops so far, Blacklace and Nicky Ree, here is what I found

BlackLace (Christmas Gift) Pretty Damn Cute for free


BlackLace: Beautiful, intricate, and oh so sexy, teamed up with wanton cake hair and fuck me pumps from Periquita.


Nicky Ree : Vicky..so lovely Lush green satin silk... costs an arm and a leg, worth every Linden, Kira Hair from Laqroki


Also from Nicky Ree, this babydoll bra and thong with matching skirt, I liked the print it is like christmas amaryllis, also a little steep in price, but so feminine

Next week I will treat myself to something else new, or maybe someone else will.. stay tuned folks.

The Damsel in Distress.. tie me up baby!

Oh .. did I have a fun morning talking to the author of this great group of pulp fiction comics. Karen Silversmith is the author of several very cute comic books. The books are in THiNC format and can be rezzed inworld or alternatively on screen for your reading pleasure.

Below is a transcript of the conversation we had, with Karen explaining to me just how much effort goes into making these comics.

Suede: How often do you publish?
Karen : I try to do at least one book a week, but of course things don't always work as planned. The Adventures of Rennisa Melody took two months from the time I took the pics to actual publication

Suede: So I see 3 at the moment, Abbi, Cliffhangers and Damsel Files.. is that correct?
Karen: Well Abby has become Latex Kittens now featuring different models and I also have TAORM, and a new superheroine title called SuperStarr.



Suede : Do you charge for your publications and how are they circulated?
Karen : Yes, anywhere from 50l to 125L per issue, it mainly depends how many pages are involved in the issue have several vendors around SL, places like Kidnapped!, Dead End City, Little Shop Of Kink, Webound Mall, Anarchy Island, Hoar's Harbor
there even a club that has my sampler placed about with a link to one of my stores.


Suede : Okay.. so let me ask you.. The Latex Kitten ...looks more sexual in nature.. is it?
Karen : Well I wanted to do a more Fetish based book outside of the Damsell In Distress genre. Something more on the photography side than the story side, thus Abby was born.

Suede: Do you think more women or men.. favour your comics?
Karen: So far I have seen an even mix, women tend to like it because in most of my stories the women are there own hero. They find a way to free themselves instead of relying on a male character to set them free. I do have a couple where there is a hero, but only when it's story appropriate. Men enjoy them because they already have an interest in the suspense of what will happen to the damsel, which is the main focus of The Damsel Files

Suede: So how do you choose your models, is there a particular look you like, innocent, girlish ?
Karen: Not really, I see the model, and get the idea for a character or a storyline. The Adventures Of Rennisa Melody was originally being shot for an issue of TDF, then while shooting I realized the overall Nancy Drew aspect it had, and realized it could be a series on it's own. In future issues there will be recurring characters, a best friend, the town sheriff, a chemistry professor.

Suede: How much time and money do you think your publications cost you, are you breaking evenor it's all about the love of the job
Karen: Well it is all about the love of the job, ever since I was little, I have always been making up stories in my head. Doing this provides a great outlet for me to express my imagination. I have alot of fun doing these. Do I wish it would make me rich, of course, who doesn't want to be rich. But for now, I just enjoy doing this. I have made alot of friends along the way, and met alot of interesting people and I hope it continues as long as people keep reading them, I will keep making them no matter what the cost.

Suede: Do you use Windlight settings for your photographs or do you touch them up in Photoshop?
Karen: I do all my editing in PS, I recently met a photographer who gave me ideas on how to adjust lighting to give the pics a more three dimensional look, if you compare issue 1 to issue 7 of TDF you can see a big difference.


My last question to Karen was this, was she interested in producing machinima versions of her Damsel Files or her other publications and she said she was more than interested, so anyone out there with a interest, maybe you should contact her, you might be SL's answer to Quentin Tarantino. If your also interested I have noted below Karen Silversmith's Facebook page and also her MySpace space, have fun reading the comics she produces, I know I did.

The Wild Coast Naturist Resort - Kaiya Islands

Hellooo..

News today from the happy naked people. I had been hearing through the grapevine about the Wild Coast, and decided to check it out for myself and I found it to be very relaxed and chilled, people chatting and hanging out and being pleasant, no being chased by evil orange willies and best of all.. no invites to get sweaty.The welcome area has a lovely pool and plenty of places to hang out and people watch, as you can see from my snapshots the place is very very busy, and lucky for patrons - lag is not too bad.. probably cause the only lag in the resort is caused by peoples hair.. lack of prim clothes helps the place run smoothly.



The Owner of the resort Kaiya was very informative and takes the resort very seriously, there are guards to keep away griefers and to keep order in the complex, although I didn't see anyone getting out of hand. The rules are very simple no clothes and no erections but they are mandantory, so no being shy here. There is a membership fee of 450L.. although it sounds steep it is worth it.

This collection of sims has plenty of other things to offer as well the bay has live music which is very popular as well as the resort sim and also homesteads. Kaiya mentioned to me that the resort has over 11,000 members and still growing and I can understand why the resort is exceptionally well appointed with lovely landscaping

I was also entertained by the delicious Sal.. Beach Guard at the resort, check out his piccie here, I did notice that most of the avatars at the resort were good looking avi's men and women included, not withstanding this lovely fairy in the second pic.



The welcome area has a lovely pool and plenty of places to hang out and people watch, there is also a beach area with dancing and a waterfall. There are lots of beautiful places to hang out.

For my last picture I sat in the lovely scene in a river following down from a waterfall, with hippos in the back.. sitting on a rock with my toes swirling in the cool blue water..it was relaxing it was quiet.. think I will be going back very very soon.
